Football Finances in Chump

Whilst we have some debt (quite tasty) our current wage bill is less than turnover.

Those figures are for the year before the Thai's took over and as such are probably not at all helpful in terms of where we are now.

Rofl @ Bolton's debt.

What are the numbers in brackets, or am I being dense?

Interesting comparison with QPR. Our turnover is very similar yet they are sitting on £179m of debt against our £47m. That says a huge amount about the differences in how the clubs are run.

Right. Who says we're not a big club?

In Championship terms we most definitely are.

There's no doubt that QPR are a massive anomaly.

Interestingly (or not) our figures exactly match Wigan who also came down with us.

Like us they had a £38.1m turnover with a 30.1m wage bill. Although their turnover was boosted somewhat by their European campiagn and FA Cup semi final run.

That was the season before, hence the European campaign also mentioned.

LOL at calling Bristol City the Cherries. Casts doubt on the reliability of any of this stuff.
. The newly promoted club have a £20m interest-free loan from Lansdown, who continues to bankroll the Cherries. B

Rotherham proving you can make a profit in the Championship, even if it's only enough to pay Yaya Toure's wages for 4 days.

If that's for the season before last, but with this season's teamsit makes comparisons a bit pointless doesn't it.

Fulham were PL, MK Dons, Brentford and Rotherham amongst others were league 1.
